Oddbean new post about login | logout I've always wanted to try this. From what I hear you've got to leech the tannic acid out of the acorn meal many times before it's edible. Have you tried it?
@Tadgan Hrothgar — I haven’t yet. From what I’ve read, they used to be a common food in many parts of the world. Times (and prices) being what they are, seems worth exploring when I have so many at hand! Hopefully it’s worth the hassle of processing out the tannins, drying, and grinding into flour.
Absolutely! I wonder if it will be easier to grind it when it's still wet, or if you can just grind it into a paste and start making the dough from there instead of drying it out first?
@Tadgan Hrothgar — hmmm, might be worth trying! 🧐
